For every brave soldier thatlost life in the war in Iraq,we will write a poem.

We will not call you a casualty.We will not number you. You areour mothers and fathers, our auntsand uncles, brothers and sisters,husbands and wives, friends, loversand neighbors, our cousinsand grandparents. You are ourcountry, our freedom.

thank you... for paying homeage to lose that lost their lives to keep us free. Thank you... God bless the soldiers out their that risk their lives every single day. Be careful and may god watch all of your steps.

i love this idea. i would so like to contribute right now, right this very second, but i know its worth more than that. so i will hold off until i find myself writing a poem worthy of this cause...but you will hear from me again, i promise.God Bless,

I've written about your Operation Poem in my blog today, and I'll be posting your link to the poetry boards that I frequent. I think we need to remember sometimes, need to have it brought home, that this war has a face - has many faces - and they deserve to be remembered.
